Forbes Magazine: 'There's These Homeless Encampments Everywhere': RFK Jr. Complains About State Of San Francisco'

Source:Forbes Magazine- Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy JR. Except for the striking resemblance, it's hard to believe that this is Robert F. Kennedy's on. But that's a different story.

"At a recent campaign rally, independent 2024 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. bemoaned the homeless encampments in San Francisco, California." 

From Forbes Magazine

Last time I checked, Robert F. Kennedy JR. is running for President, not the Mayor of San Francisco, or to be a member of the SF Board of Supervisors. But he's talking about the cost of housing and the rising cost of housing in San Francisco, one of the biggest cities in America, (as far as population) and one of the wealthiest, as far as per-capita-income, but also one of the best educated in America. 

Housing really is a local and state issue. The Federal Government can do things to address rising prices in general, like with inflation and interest rates, empowering more people to be able to further and continue their education, so they can get better jobs and earn more money, which would help them afford better housing. But for the most part, housing really is a local and perhaps state issue. 

Uncle Sam can't just come in to any city, let alone San Francisco and say: "This is how much housing you are allowed to build and this is how much you can charge for it." That is an issue for local government's, not the President of the United States.
